The last duel between the two, played six seasons ago, ended in a 1-1 draw.
Marbella FC’s Challenging Outing Against Betis Deportivo
Marbella FC faces a demanding outing this Sunday as they visit Betis Deportivo. The white team has the opportunity to make a significant stride towards the playoff for promotion, by potentially gaining three points and preventing a direct rival from earning the same. After five years without facing each other, Marbella and Betis have once again found themselves in the same group this season.
First Encounter in 2ªRFEF
The previous six duels were always in the now-defunct Segunda División B, making this their first encounter in 2ªRFEF. In the six previous matches played at the Luis del Sol Sports City, the balance of results is very similar with three victories for Betis Deportivo, two wins for Marbella FC, and one draw. This draw occurred in the last match between the two.
Recalling the Last Match
In the 2017/18 season, the match ended in a 1-1 draw with goals from Loren Morón from a penalty and Javi Moreno for the white team. That match was marked by the early expulsion of Catena, who is now with CA Osasuna. Marbella managed to win in Sevilla in the 2015/16 season with a 1-2 score thanks to goals from Sergio Narváez and Zelu.
Previous Victories and Defeats
A season earlier, the white team thrashed 1-4 with goals from Diego Segura (2), Narváez, and Rubiato. In addition, in the 2008/09 season, Christian Leroy gave Marbella a 0-1 victory. Betis Deportivo won in the 2009/10 and 2003/04 seasons with a 1-0 score; while in the 2007/08 season, they managed to take the victory and the three points by winning 2-0.
High Stakes for the Upcoming Match
This Sunday, they face each other again with a lot at stake and the need for both to earn the three points in play, which would be a significant step towards the playoff goal.
